poppy in the sunshine

Friday, February 4, 2011


Just thought I'd send a little sunshine and flowers your way today. I feel oddly removed from winter here, but clearly remember many many days in a row of a monochromatic world.

I actually sometimes miss those days covered in shades of gray…those days that make springtime when it comes so much more dramatic and breathtaking.

I love living where we are…but I do hope that one day we will live somewhere with all four seasons, clearly defined! Right now, I see naked trees, and a few with fall-colored leaves hanging on, and some with springtime blossoms already. I can't remember what month it is!

I captured this poppy (and several more) in the Golden Gate Park in San Francisco the week after Christmas.

I love how the sun shines through the poppy. Beautiful! I still think you should try and sell your art. I would totally purchase it!
